Two night stay
Property was really cute. Perfect for a mother/daughter getaway. Only complaint is about the 10:00 AM checkout (11:00 would be better).

Potty House
We arrived at the cottage around midnight after a day-long flight. The checkin process was smooth: however, upon walking in the door, we were overcome by a strong sewer odor. I texted the properly manager that night and followed up with a phone call in the morning. We left the property after spending 12 hours there and moved into another property. VRBO was wonderful in working with me to obtain a full refund. It was, however, an inconvenience and disappointment to arrange for another property and loss of vacation time.
